1966 Map of Ellison

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

The Humboldt River carves a complex, meandering path through this high desert basin, where the confluence with the Reese River marks a vital hydrologic junction near the Humboldt Co Lander Co line. During this mid-century period, the landscape is defined by the heavy infrastructure of the Western Pacific and Southern Pacific railroads, which run parallel to the river valley. These rail lines supported isolated outposts like Ellison and Mote, serving the regional ranching economy.
